State v. Thompson, Jr.
Citations
- 2020 Ohio 211
Syllabus
The trial court did not accurately advise appellant that a driver's license suspension was mandatory, and thus it only partially complied with the Crim.R. 11(C)(2)(a) maximum penalty advisement. However, the record does not support the conclusion the appellant would not have entered into the plea agreement if he had subjectively understood that the license suspension was mandatory. Also, since consecutive sentences were either mandatory or imposed as part of an agreed-upon prison term, the trial court did not err by failing to make consecutive sentence findings under R.C. 2929.14(C)(4). Judgment affirmed. (Donovan, J., dissenting.)
